Professor and Endowed Chair Drew Lyon points out the differences between similar weeds at a previous Lind crop tour. Returning this summer, WSU crop tours let Washington growers see research in action.

Growers can learn about the latest research on crops and practices for dryland farming at the 104th annual Lind Field Day, Thursday, June 16, 2022, at Washington State University’s Lind Dryland Research Station.

Registration begins at 8:30 a.m., with field tours starting at 9 a.m. A complimentary lunch and program will follow the tours.

Research presentations will focus on WEEDit sprayer technology; winter, club, and spring wheat breeding; pennycress research; and wheat diseases and the Plant Diagnostic Clinic.

WSU administrators will speak during the noon program. State legislature and wheat industry leaders will also provide updates.  An ice cream social will follow.

The Lind Field Day is free and open to the public. Washington pesticide recertification credits have been requested.
